Ingredients:
- 1 (28 oz.) can Dei Fratelli Seasoned Diced Tomatoes, drained
- 3/4 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 Tbsp. Garlic, minced
- 1/4 tsp. Black Pepper, ground
- 1 loaf Ciabatta Bread, cut into 1/2" cubes
- 1/4 Cup Black Olives, sliced
- 1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar
- 1/4 Cup Fresh Basil, chopped
- 1/4 Cup Fresh Parsley, chopped
- 1/4 tsp. Salt
- 1/4 Lemon, juiced
- 1/4 Cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic, and black pepper.
- Place bread cubes in a large bowl. Slowly drizzle the olive oil mixture over the bread and toss to coat. Only use enough to cover the bread, about half, and reserve the remainder.
- Place the coated bread cubes on a large sheet pan and cook for 20 minutes.
- While bread is in the oven, combine the remaining olive oil mixture with Dei Fratelli Seasoned Diced Tomatoes, olives, balsamic vinegar, basil, parsley, salt, and lemon juice to create a marinade. Allow to sit.
- Once the bread is out of the oven and cooled, toss together the marinade and the bread in a large bowl. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
Chef's Tip:
